Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.

Last Wednesday, a week ago, I left my abuser. I moved into an empty apartment with whatever I threw quickly into my car, my cat, and the items I had put into storage.
It's a week later, and I am doing well. Mentally I am 1000 times better. Physically I am completely exhausted. I slept on the floor for 5 nights, and my sleep schedule and eating schedule were off.
Last Saturday I found a deal and bought a bed. I found a really nice delivery/moving person who chargse me one fee to deliver/move anything, even though I am upstairs. I bought a beautiful chair and 2 tables from Goodwill. I do not hesitate to tell everyone what I have been through, and they are more than willing to help.
"He" has tried to get back with me in his twisted way of talking to me. I have eliminated all contact with him, and just have to leave my material things behind. (or what's left of them)
Overall, I am exhausted, but much much better. I'll feel even better when I get my cable/internet/phone connections because it is very isolating when you don't have these, but I should have that taken care of by this weekend.
For anyone who wonders if it is worth it to leave, it absolutely is worth it. I have a long way yo go, but I never once regretted leaving.

I am SO proud of you and how you are dealing with things!!..
You attitude is a huge factor..and the fact that you refuse to let him talk his shit..and 'work' you...anymore...
Its really great...You will never regret it..
I can actually say that don't even think of mine anymore!..Its such freedom...and true peace..It also returns a great self respect to ourselves, to finally choose an abuse free life..
It takes some time to adjust..but you are well ahead!...And its great to keep hearing how you are doing...
Hearing how you are doing..Is also a real inspiration to others wondering what it would be like?..And shows it CAN be done..and that there IS a better life after abuse...
And how much better, that life truly is...Abuse free...
Thinking of you!...
I heard it's normal to get tired and have different eating and sleeping for a while.
I like the library for books and movies.
I'm so happy for you.
